Strategic Planning & Market Coverage:

Align with the core team on planning, strategy, and narrative for marquee cricket events. Ensure well-distributed market coverage through proactive outreach and engagement. Strengthen platform positioning as the preferred partner for sports marketing and digital-first campaigns.

Post-Campaign Analysis & Insights:

Deliver data-backed post-campaign evaluation reports, including Brand Lift Studies (BLS). Translate insights into long-term media strategies for client retention and upselling. Drive increased share of wallet through consultative, data-led engagement.

What you'll bring:

Overall experience of 6-8 years in Media (TV or Digital). A problem-solving mindset with the ability to think strategically to address client challenges. A proven track record in maintaining relationships and working with diverse clients in the South Region. Market-savvy with a keen eye for trends, the competitive landscape, and industry insights. Strong negotiation and deal-closure skills with experience in driving revenue growth and achieving sales targets. Ability to develop integrated media solutions that align with client objectives (sports-specific preferred). Strong communication and presentation skills for C-suite and senior client interactions. * Experience in collaborating with internal teams (content, marketing, ad ops, research) to deliver client solutions.
